Do This: April 19th list of protests
Okay, so remember when I told everybody to hold April 19th? Here’s where you can search for a 50501 event near you, and there are definitely going to be other events on the same day by other groups.
It will NOT be as big as April 5th. But a good turnout is important – and basically will continue to be important for months and months.
The next really massive turnout day looks like it’s going to be May 1st, though. Reserve the day. Indivisible is cooking something up, 50501 will be in on it, so will a lot of other people, or so I hear. Put it on your calendar now, so you’re ready.
Here are some other April 19 events in the Seattle area, compiled by Indivisible. I’m sure you can find something to do.
See you out there, and as always – good hunting.

Linking this article just for the Palantir CEO quote at the end wired.com/story/doge-hackathon…
"We love disruption and whatever is good for America will be good for Americans and very good for Palantir,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp said in a February earnings call. “Disruption at the end of the day exposes things that aren't working. There will be ups and downs. This is a revolution, some people are going to get their heads cut off."

Do This: HANDS OFF! National Protest this Saturday, April 5th
Hello and welcome to another Monday planning day. At time of writing, I don’t actually know how this past weekend’s Tesla protests went – I’m writing this well in advance, and scheduling it to go up no matter what happens. But hopefully you were there and hopefully it went well.
This weekend is bigger. It’s called Hands Off! and it’s not specifically Tesla focused, it’s against the entire Musk/Trump administration agenda.
Like with the Tesla protests, there are hundreds scheduled. Like the Tesla protests, not all are at the same time of day – I have two in reasonable range of me that don’t even overlap so I may be able to show up at both.
You have options is what I am saying.
Go find a good one for you, make the time, and get out there.
And good hunting.

Hands Off!
Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're taking everything they can get their hands on and daring the world to stop them.Hands Off!

HEY EVERYONE DOING PROTESTS LISTEN UP
One addendum to the last post:
We need to do our own reporting. We need to talk about these protests. To everyone. You need to post about them, at least to say you did them, that you were there.
The media’s not reporting it, so WE HAVE TO REPORT IT INSTEAD.
Which is one reason why I’m writing all this up. WE have to spread the news, because THEY will NOT.
Seriously, the fash podcasting littleman I talked about last post? He was literally the ONLY media to show up. No other media was there.
So once again, we have to be that media. For real.

Stackslobber posts evidence that transhumanism is a literal cult, HN crowd is not having it
In my head transhumanism is this cool idea where I'd get to have a zoom function in my eye
But of course none of that could exist in our capitalist hellscape because of just all the reasons the ruling class would use it to opress the working class.
And then you find out what transhumanists actually advocate for and it's just eugenics. Like without even a tiny bit of plausible deniability. They're proud it's eugenics.

Clockwork PicoCalc is a retro handheld powered by a Raspberry Pi Pico
The PicoCalc is a new handheld with a retro design. At first glance it looks more like a graphing calculator than a modern handheld device. But it sports a QWERTY keyboard, a 4 inch display, and a mainboard designed to accommodate a Raspberry Pi Pico.
Available for $75 from the Clockwork Pi store, it’s also the latest in a line of retro-inspired, modular, and open source products from the […]
